All of the staff was extremely friendly and helpful during my stay at the Soca Rocks Hostel. I will definitely be staying here again next time I am visiting Bovec.

Basic but clean with a nice bar
Slight problem with check out, as I was asked to pay the hostel when I had already paid online and had to prove this. It took a long time to rectify but was fine in the end. Just be careful not to pay twice if you pay online! Accommodation was simple but clean and comfortable. Perfect for a couple nights and lots of activities to be involved in if that's your thing.

Dear guest, thank you for your comment. I am sorry for all inconvenience regarding the paying, but normally our guests always pays after check-out, so therefore was a bit of confusion, but at the end was everything okay.

Good base for Soca Valley
Convenient and cosy stay in heart of Bovec. Competitively priced. Friendly hosts. Only downsides were low ceilings:have to be careful to not hit your head if in top bunk; and paucity of charging points in dorms.

Dear David, thank you for your review. We are always happy about our guests' positive feedback. Otherwise, there are 6 charging points in each room, in case it's not enough you can always come also to common room and use it here.

Nice hostel, offers good help with activities in and around Bovec. Rooms and bathrooms are clean and there’s a nice common area/bar downstairs and a kitchen offering all necessary amenities. Bovec center with all restaurants and bars is a short walk (around 5 minutes) from the hostel. Rooms can get very hot during summer. Also the curtains did not cover our full window, the light in our room woke us up relatively early. Our room was located on the bar/street side, it can get quite loud on weekend days, but it didn’t bother us too much. The refrigerator in the kitchen could use some cleaning, as it was a bit smelly.

Hi Lukasz, Thank you very much for taking the time to write us such a wide review. We really appreciate it! It will for sure be a nice help to people arriving at Bovec :) It is the truth that the vibe at the hostel can get lively on Fridays and Saturdays from times to times as there is a bunch of young people around and they are looking to have a groovy summer night. We are really trying to direct them to the nearest pub for that. Sometimes we need to try a lot! So sorry that the morning light woke you up. We have a plan to change the curtains in the near future. And we sure are paying more attention to the refrigerator. We also hope your overall stay in Bovec was just as lovely as it is for us leaving in this beautiful part of the World. Best regards from Bovec! HSR Team

Hervorragende Lage, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der Nähe, gut ausgerüstete Gemeinschaftsküche, über das Hostel Vergünstigungen bei Aktivitäten (sogar günstiger als online Buchungen) und 10% bei ausgewählten Restaurants, nettes Personal (wir durften sogar kostenlos im Inland mit ihrem Telefon telefonieren), viele junge Menschen als Gäste dementsprechend eine gewisse Lautstärke zu erwarten, großer kostenloser Parkplatz.

Agradable
El Hostel no es malo. Hay que estar atento a las duchas, por qué hay pocas y las dos que use, no teniannel gancho para la ducha, así que era incómodo bañarse, lo que genera más retrasó. La habitación padece de varias cosas. No hay mucho espacio disponible, el "locker" es como un baúl debajo de la cama, nadaou práctico. No hay suficientes tomacorrientes, y eso sí es terrible. Al menos uno por cama es la norma, más aún considerando que la mayoría de huéspedes lleva más de un dispositivo. Tampoco hay luces individuales. Debería tener mallas Anti insectos en la ventana Yo tuve una mala experiencia con una de las chicas de recepción, pero solo con ella. El resto del personal si fue amable. Las áreas comunes se cierran temprano. No hay aire acondicionado en la habitación, así que en verano puede ser un poco difícil sobrellevar el clima.

Hostel with everything you need
Big and comfy shared area. The kitchen is big with a lot of ustensils. This is a big hostel but there is enough bathroom for everybody. The only downsize was the size of the 6 bed dorm. It is a bit small if the room is full.
